Songs of the Breeze

Away From Home

Alone I stand, beneath a sky so vast,
The horizon stretches, holding me fast.

Frail and fleeting, thoughts begin to rise,
Whispered by winds that stir no grassy sighs.

The clear sky beckons, pure and crystalline,
As if to draw me in, this soul of mine.
Drawn to its depths, beyond all earthly hold,
Like clouds that drift, I cannot long remain.

The sun's bright rays, a dazzling gold,
I yield my heart, and let them pierce me through.
Tears shimmer softly on my silent face,
A lonely echo in this empty space.

I whisper your name, a repeated plea,
And on my lips, your memory holds me.
